Description Nicolò Chieffo 2007-08-14 15:04:54 UTC
Please describe the problem:
in tracker-preferences v 0.6.1 there is a bug in how "index and watch my home directory" and "additional paths to index and watch" are handled.

using tracker-preferences, whenever I uncheck "index and watch my home directory" and hit close, the first entry of "additional paths to index and watch" is automatically removed from tracker.cfg

the following time I open tracker-preferences "index and watch my home directory" is checked again, *but* there is no /home/yelo3 entry in tracker.cfg.

There is something wrong in the code. using a clean tracker.cgf (with my home in the list) after adding from the preferences GUI some directories to watch, the home is removed. But tracker-preferences still thinks that the home is indexed.

Steps to reproduce:

Does this happen every time?
